Looks good to me! But the tank isn't Frontera, or the guards and there's no centre stand or chrome headlight and speedo ... But the numbers stack up. Frontera gearboxes and VMX tracks aren't always the best of friends (low 1st cog) but this'll make a solid resto to Frontera specs. Another one I can't afford!  ::)

The Pursang style tank was an option on the early Fronteras,and I think only Fronteras had rear grab handles

Yes, Roger ... remember all those who found a sad Mk9 or Mk10 Frontera and ground off the grab handles, skid plate (some bolted, some welded), centre stand brackets and so on then turned the enduro into an MXer? There'll be a frantic rewelding exercise by some as vinduro really starts to take a national hold. By the way, thanks for the PM on my Frontera issue. The search continues ..... :-\
